Diffuser pipe for a gas turbine engine and method for manufacturing same
TL;DR: In this paper, a diffuser pipe for a gas turbine engine comprises a hollow pipe body including a first end, a second end fluidly connected to the first end and at least one flattened area proximate to the second end.
Patent
Pre-loaded internal fuel manifold support
TL;DR: In this article, a system for mounting an internal fuel manifold within a gas generator case of a gas turbine engine includes at least one fastener support assembly having a fastener pin and a receiving element, respectively engaged to either the internal manifold or the generator case.
Patent
Micro gas turbine systems and uses thereof
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe a micro gas turbine flameless heater, in which the heat is generated by burning fuel in a gas turbine engine, and the heater output air mixture is created by transferring the heat in the gas turbine exhaust to the cold air drawn from the ambient environment.
